Number of gun murders by year in the U.S......

[JoeB131]

Moron...you know because you have been told that the deaths I point out are not war deaths....they are not from combat or collateral damage from combat....they were civilians rounded up by their governments, marched into forests and death camps and murdered....

During wars... thanks for pointing that out.

War sucks.

Native Americans did not suffer genocide, they suffered from diseases from Europe........they did however commit atrocities against each other long before Europeans arrived.

Nope. it was genocide. Hitler modeled the Concentration Camps on US Indian Reservations.

Moron.....civilians rounded up.....and murdered. No ability to protect themselves or fight back, just loaded up, marched into forests and death camps and murdered.....

Except....for Switzerland...never invaded because their people were heavily armed and ready to fight any occupation.......so Germany didn't invade...

That is why the Nazis despised Switzerland. Joseph Goebbels called Switzerland "this stinking little state" where "sentiment has turned very much against us." Adolf Hitler decided that "all the rubbish of small nations still existing in Europe must be liquidated," even if it meant he would later "be attacked as the 'Butcher of the Swiss.'"

The 1940 Nazi invasion plan, Operation Tannenbaum, was not executed, and SS Oberst Hermann Bohme's 1943 memorandum warned that an invasion of Switzerland would be too costly because every man was armed and trained to shoot. This did not stop the Gestapo from preparing lists of Swiss to be liquidated once the Nazis overran the country.

The other European nations were easily toppled and had little means to wage a partisan war against the occupation. Once their standing armies were defeated, the governments capitulated and the populaces were defenseless.

Only in Switzerland was the entire populace armed and prepared to wage a relentless guerrilla war against an invader. When the war began in 1939, Switzerland mobilized 435,000 citizen soldiers out of a population of 4.2 million. Production figures for Swiss service rifles, which had firepower equal to those of the Germans, demonstrate an ample supply of small arms. Swiss militiamen were instructed to disregard any alleged "official" surrender as enemy propaganda and, if necessary, to fight individually. This meant that a nation of sharpshooters would be sniping at German soldiers at long ranges from every mountain.

While neutral, Switzerland was prepared to fight a Nazi invasion to the end. The celebrated Swiss Gen. Henri Guisan developed the strategy known as defense du reduit--an initial opposition followed by a retreat into the Alps, where a relentless war to the death would be waged. Most Swiss strongly opposed Nazism. Death sentences were issued for fifth-column activities, and proclamations against anti-Semitism were passed at various official levels. There was no Holocaust on Swiss soil, something that can not be said for France, the Netherlands, Poland or most of Europe.

You can use statistics to make almost any political point you want if you leave out certain details. The 13,529 firearms death figure might be accurate but it includes suicides, Police shootings, home defense and the usual criminal suspects. How many existing laws were broken? The bottom line is that Canada has crappy emergency response and medical treatment and the U.S. needs to enforce existing gun laws and close the borders.

Yup. War sucks. Tanks beat handguns.

Naw, they despised Switzerland the way a junkie despises his Pusher. Switzerland (and Sweden) were collaborating with the Nazis up to VE Day.
